Please carefully read and save these instructions.
CAUTION: Read all instructions and warnings carefully before starting installation. Failure to follow these instructions may result in a possible electric shock, or fire hazard and will void the warranty.

**** IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

  1. Read all instructions before using the Log Grate.

  2. The heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. The trim around the heater outlet becomes hot during the heater operation. Keep
    combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding,  papers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet (0.9m) from the front of the unit.

  3. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the unit is left operating and unattended.

  4. Always unplug the Log Grate when not in use.

  5. Do not operate any unit with a damaged cord or plug, if the heater has malfunctioned, or if the Log Grate has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the heater to an authorized service facility for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.

  6. Do not use outdoors.

  7. The Log Grate is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas, and similar indoor locations. Never locate the heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water
    container.

  8. Do not run the cord under the carpeting. Do not cover the cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like. Arrange the cord away from the traffic area so that it will not be tripped over.

  9. To disconnect the unit, turn the controls off, then remove the plug from the outlet.

  10. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock or fire, or damage to the heater.

  11. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intake or exhaust in any manner. Do not use it on soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings may become blocked.

  12. All electrical heaters have hot and arching or sparking parts inside. Do not use in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored or where the unit will be exposed to flammable vapors.

  13. Do not modify the Log Grate. Use it only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury to persons.

  14. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/ receptacle. Never use it with an extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).

  15. Do not burn wood or other materials in the Log Grate.

  16. Always use a certified electrician should new circuits or outlets be required.

  17. Always use properly grounded, fused, and polarized outlets.

  18. Disconnect all power supplies before performing any cleaning, maintenance, or relocation of the unit.

  19. When transporting or storing the unit and cord, keep them in a dry place, free from excessive vibration, and store them so as to avoid damage.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

**CAUTION:** This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital devices, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions may cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
  • Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

**WARNING: Remote control contains small batteries. Keep away from children. If swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
WARNING: Do not install the battery backward, charge, put in the fire, or mix with used or other battery types – may explode or leak causing injury.
!
NOTE:** Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Log Grate Assembly

**CAUTION:** Handle logs carefully, they are fragile and can easily crack or break, if dropped. Each log is a separate component that needs to be placed on the grate. Position each log so that the hook and loop dot on the backside of the log lines up with the corresponding hook and loop pad on the Log Grate. These pads assist with securing the logs to the grate.
Each of the logs contains LED lights to create a flickering effect. During assembly, each log requires the electrical connectors on the log and grate to be connected as they are being placed. In some cases, these wires will need to have tie wraps added to prevent the wires from being seen after final assembly.

! NOTE: A 15amp, 120 volt circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred but not essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if, after installation, the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows on a regular basis when the heater is operating. Additional appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker.
WARNING: Ensure the power cord is not installed so that it is pinched or against a  sharp edge and ensure that the power cord is stored or secured to avoid tripping or snagging to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Construction and electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other applicable regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons.
Do not attempt to wire your own new outlets or circuits. To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, always use a licensed electrician.

  1. Make sure the unit On/Off switch is switched OFF (refer to operating instruction section).
  2. Plug the unit into a 15 Amp/120 volt outlet.

! NOTE: For optimal flame projection, it is recommended that the unit be placed 4″ (10.2 cm) from the back of the mantel. The addition of a mesh spark screen in front of the Log Grate and Fireplace tools can be used to complete the look of your hearth. To enhance the look of the Log Grate, further, non- toxic materials such as cat litter and/or lava rock to replicate the look of ashes and embers can also be used.
CAUTION: We do not recommend the use of additional decorative material in homes with young children or pets where these materials could be a choking hazard.
